I have to sand down an intricate cast iron bench for repainting.
It has lots of holes that I have to sand the inside of.

Is there an easier way than doing this, by hand or with a detail
sander, perhaps some attachment to an electric drill that I
have missed?

Or perhaps, I might be better with paint stripper and a hose?

It doesn't need to create a perfect finish just one that the
new paint will stick too.

Can you get it sand blasted ?

How big are the holes, and what shape?

They range from about finger sized to fist sized, random
shaped.

Could you use a rotary file?

Possibly, but it's still not going to be an easy job

thanks,
